The tongue can only be tamed with God’s help. It can’t be changed by human power alone. Matthew 12:33-37 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit. O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, […]

Faith alone without works is dead. When we’re saved there’s a change in us. James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. We’re a new creature when we’re saved. If we think of a boat, one oar is faith and the other is our works. We would only go […]
